| BARLEl-The market has been soft all the

account for custom, and this has not been OF
| large magnitude. AS a consequence, values
have been growing weaker every day, without
developing any increase In the legitimate de-

| Feed, there Is little doubt that buyers could
readily obtain concessions and perhaps satisfy

| good quality. Brewing descriptions are easier
in sympathy with feed. Old Brewing has been

OF 81 06i4 for a desirable lot WIS promptly ac-

oATs-supplies are coming forward freely

SEEDS-Trade in Mustard is somewhat slow.
More Yellow is offering than is wanted at the

description inclines in favor of sellers. Alfalfa
is making better representation. Mustard,

FRUIT-Apples continue to make quite lib
eral exhibit aud prices shape favorably for con-
sumers. The market is oyerstocked with poor
Pears, for which there is no trade, and dumping
| is necessary to clean up stores. Backberries
have gone out, but Strawberries appear with
daily regularity. Peaches will oon disappear.
Very little good stock of this variety is to be
| found. The demand for Wine Grapes is active
| but table descriptions are not eagerly sought
| for. Some few Figs yet come to hand and
bring good figures, being choice and desirable

| DRIED FRUIT-There is fair movement. but
| the market does not present any signs of
| strength. Buyers are critical as to quality and
lots that are not firstelass in every respect have
to be sold at less than the difference in quality
would seem to warrant. Raisins are coming
forward in light quantity, finding prompt Gus

BUTTER-The general tone of the market is

exceptional and not representative. All kinds
of fresh Butter show easier feeling. while

PoULTRY-Receipts are fair, being enough to
meet all needs Prices are somewhat easy, and
any excess in the quantity of arrivals would
temporarily depress values. We quote prices as
